Chapter 3: 3. Champion of Luck

"fufufu"

"hehehe"

Hmm..? 

I slowly opened my eyes and saw three people sitting on a picnic blanket and eating snacks. We were in an open grassy field, and sitting under the shade of a tree. 

We four were sitting in a circle, to my right was a boy, he had short silver hair and red eyes. To my left was a girl with long black hair and purple eyes, who was chatting with the woman or the goddess sitting between the girl and the boy. Then the goddess looked towards me and said, "Ah, you woke up, we were waiting for you. "

Then the girl and boy looked at me with concern. A thought flashed through my mind. Don't tell me..? 

"Sorry Noah, I and Ben were trying our best to help you but it was this bitc-*ahem*Goddess's domain, so we weren't able to come. " said the black haired girl with tears coming through her eyes. 

My heart felt warm just hearing this. 

"It's okay Lily, if I want to become strong I can't depend on both of you always. " I said while wiping a few of her tears. She smiled a little bit. 

When I turned towards the white haired boy who was sulking, I said, "Hey Ben don't be sad, just think positive like now I became the Champion of a goddess. "

He turned towards me and sighed, "Only you can say that in this situation. I don't know if I should feel angry towards you for challenging the goddess or happy that you at least survived. "

"Don't worry, under my guidance, he will become the best Champion in the Void. " said the goddess arrogantly. 

"Ah, this might be late but my name is Noah. " I introduced myself. 

She smiled and said, "My name is Tyche, goddess of luck, chance and little control over fate. But my friends call me Talya."

Then I looked towards Lily and Ben said lightly, "If people see us, they might not think that we are brother and sister."

Lily said teasingly, "Do you think that I and Ben will have just a brother-sister relationship. We both were born together to help each other. And after gaining emotions we started to* love* each other. "

I saw a dangerous light in her eyes. I just shivered thinking is Lily a yandere..? Think positively. But then a thought flashed through my mind. I looked disgustingly at both of them, and said, "Don't tell me, when you both were living in my soul you both did... it...? " I just got goosebumps all over my skin-no my whole soul felt dread just thinking about it. 

They both stopped smiling after hearing, while Talya started to giggle. Ben gave me a blank stare and Lily said while her face became red "Dumbass do you think souls can do those things, we need physical bodies, so we just romantically fell in love a-a-nd no-t-hing else."

I laughed and said, "It's okay, jeez I was just teasing you. " 

Lily looked toward Talya and said," You don't have to worry about anything and talk comfortably, we will treat you like a family. "

Talya started to smile, "I -I'm really happy and thank you. It's just that whenever I got a hero or Champion many gods try to kill them because they think I will give my heroes extreme good luck, so I lived with a smaller number of people whom I can talk and speak freely with. "

In the end, I can see a few drops of tears coming from her blindfold. I think she makes an arrogant face outside and is a bit lonely from the inside. 

Lily lightly hugged her and gently said, "Don't worry, we will take care of each other from now. "

I nodded and said, " You don't have to worry from now I will slowly tortu-*ahem*quick death to whoever moves against us. " Ben also nodded and said, "I don't mind if we adopt a new sister, and as an elder brother it's my duty to protect every family member. "

" "Fu*k off. Who needs your protection? " "Lily and I yelled together. 

Ben just clicked his tongue. 

[[Ding! Received new title "Champion of Luck"]]

Talya smiled and said gently, "Noah, please take care of me in future. "

Just seeing her smile my heartbeat started to rise but my skill (Calm Mind) helped me. 

I said calmly, "I will also be in your care from now on. "

"Ben, can you tell me why I got those skills suddenly or those patterns I saw while defending my soul and mind?? " I asked. Because this was very suspicious and I didn't want something dangerous in my system. 

"Don't worry about that, there were many skills which you learned in your previous lives, so they might emerge while you are under pressure." explained Ben.

I nodded and thought of all the pros and cons of it. 

"Noah if you want to become a God you should do it one step at a time." seriously said Lily. 

I nodded seriously and said, "Talya how can I reach Ex faster and how do champions or heroes die."

Talya also became serious and said, " I was going to tell you about that only. Heroes and Champions have one big difference: the universe. Heroes have their souls directly connected to their sponsored God's universe, while Champions have to connect their ones to a newly created universe. Heroes can level up fast but they have difficulty while raising their ranks, while Champions have to level and also rank up with their connected universes."

I interrupted, "Wait, you mean there is a ranking for that also. "

She said, "Yes. And a universe can only be formed if there is its own Universe Will (UV). An F rank universe has only 1 planet with living beings. And an S rank universe has many galaxies with superpowers. As I said before you interrupted, Heroes can easily level up if they train or live in their God's universe, but Champions have to level up by roaming and living in their universe. So any questions?"

I asked, " What is the difference between ranking and levelling? And how to rank up? "

[Author's note : ranks are like cultivation realms and levels are like early, mid, high, peak sub realms]

" Rank shows how much power you wield in Void while levels show how much you need to complete that respective rank. But to rank up you need to conquer a free or corrupted universe or kill that UV's favoured child. "

Hmmm.. corrupted..? 

" Free universes are the universes which are not ruled by Gods, while corrupted universes are those universes which devour heroes or champions. If you are at F+ rank and want to rank up to E- rank you have to conquer an E universe. Gods can only guide and give some skills to their heroes and champions, they can't kill other Gods heroes and champions." said Talya. 

I digested the information and thought, only heroes or champions can kill other heroes and champions huh. 

" There is one more thing, Gods can't interfere to save their heroes and champions if they are conquering a universe. But to rank from D, A, Ex all those heroes every hundred years come in one universe and whoever conquers that universe will only level up. And during that ranking all Gods can come and see what their heroes do. " she said. 

I smirked and thought of many plans so that I can kill other God's heroes who harassed my goddess. But first I have to rank up and reach that rank. 

" What about skills? " I inquired. 

This time Lily explained, " You can only learn those skills which you learned in your home world, and you can only learn one skill from the skills which you learned while conquering another universe. "

Now that's harsh. 

" But there is a catch, for example, if you mastered alchemy skill and then you forgot it, you can have a little bit of ease at learning alchemy skill in your home world from starting after forgetting it. " Ben said. 

I checked my status and asked, " What about bloodlines and main class? "

" Those are mostly chosen by their Gods but in your case I have to just unlock them. " answered Talya. 

I greatly anticipated my bloodline and classes but first I have to calm down and analyse everything. 

After a moment of silence, I opened my mouth and asked, " By going to a different universe will one reincarnate into a child or directly transmigrate to another universe? "

" For your main universe you will be born from a womb and to conquer another universe your body will be regressed to a 5 years child and transmigrate to that universe. Your body will also adapt to the universe you will be sent to. " Lily said. 

" How will I get my home universe? " I said calmly, but from inside I was very excited. 

Talya giggled and said, " Wait my dear Champion you still haven't received my skills. ~"

I was about to say that suddenly a big roulette came floating above her head. It had so many options written that I couldn't read anything due to its small size. 

" You can only get three times to spin it, so best of luck. " said the Goddess of luck. 

Then the roulette started to spin. After a few seconds, I said stop and it stopped....
